Quamby Estate, Launceston Tasmania | Wedding Florist

We had some very exciting news this past weekend with one of our weddings featuring on Style me Pretty.

The best part was, the Bride and Groom of this particular wedding were my sister and brother in-law! This could not get any sweeter! Warning, some gushing may be coming.

Kate and Nick’s wedding was without a doubt one of the best days of my life. Kate is not just my only my sister but one of my closest friends.  The wedding was in Launceston, Tasmania (where they live) at St Johns Cathedral and Quamby Estate and Ohhh my, what an absolutely stunning location for a wedding. The lovely and talented Deb from Boots Photography also traveled down and shot the wedding so I might just let the images speak for themselves. Of course, because its my sister I couldn’t possibly post less than a million photos but let me tell you, I cut it down a lot! Deb followed us around the day before as we rehearsed the ceremony and set up the reception. It was absolutely freezing weather the whole time (you can pick the Queenslanders with about 12 layers on) and I was actually quite sick but seeing my sisters face with that huge grin on it all day made me feel all warm and fuzzy so it didn’t matter.

Country Engagement Shoot | Boots Photography | Brisbane Florist

Happy Sunday flower lovers!

Today I have some cute-as-pie images to share from Boots Photography. This little country engagement shoot needed some fresh flowers picked from the garden to complete the pretty picture. Of course posies are never actually picked fresh from the garden, so I happily stepped in with some tulips, paper whites and hot pink asters. The best part was, we didn’t know what dress she was going to wear until she turned up and it just so happened to look beautiful against the colours of the flowers. Perfect!

Toparies at Beaumont | Brisbane Wedding Florist | Blue & White Bouquets

Sometimes crisp and elegant blue and white does just the trick.

Hannah and Andy’s beautiful wedding was at Toparies Restauarant in Samford. Any wedding in Samford Valley is ok by me. They kept things simple with navy and white  and It really payed off.  Thought I’d show a little sneak peak of their bouquets before I get some professional images.

Brisbane Florist | Rustic Pink Arrangement

I love using rustic, native flowers with soft and delicate blooms. Whoever’s husband bought this home is one lucky lady!

Botanical Cafe Mt Coot-tha | Brisbane Wedding Florist | Moss Reception Flowers

Today I’m happy to show you some images from a reception last year at Botanical Cafe at Mt Coot-tha.

When Mellita came to me and suggested moss on her wedding tables my heart did a little jump. It was messy and damp and so much fun! We dragged bag after bag of moss into the cafe and poked all sorts of goodies into it. Books and old nic-nacs that she had collected sat amongst the greenery. I wish I could have been there to see the guest’s faces as they found their table and discovered each treasure hidden in the foliage!

The staff at Botanical Cafe were so helpful and let me put dirt and foliage all over the place!

The photos are fabulous because they were taken by Brisbane wedding photographer Deb Boots from Boots Photography. Just love when a bride tells me Deb will be photographing my wedding flowers!

oh hello!

This little mate gave me a big fright while setting up a wedding at the Botanic Gardens Mt Coot-tha last weekend! He ran out from under a table and proceeded to climb all over my tools and eat things he found in the moss and foliages.

Luckily my husband was there and came over when I let out a strange squeak, to assure me the lizzard was not going to eat me.

Don’t worry, before long we were great friends.

Botanical Cafe Mt Coot-tha | Brisbane Wedding Florist | Mark and Mellita

Had to share a little sneaky peak of the bouquet from a beautiful wedding this past weekend – Mark and Mellita Hennessy!

The gorgeous bride, is a wedding planner with great taste and of course, some amazing ideas!  When she first came to me with her thoughts about the wedding florals I knew it was going to be amazing and a little bit different.

This delightful image is from the talented and wonderful Deborah Boots of Boots Photography.

Congratulations guys!
